| schestowitz[TR2] | <DaemonFC> As much as I would love to hear my attorney scream "ALMA....FUCK!" again. | Mar 13 02:03 |
|---|---|---|
| schestowitz[TR2] | <DaemonFC> I've heard plenty of people say they self filed everything and it went smoothly. I figure we can handle a request for a naturalization hearing ourselves. | Mar 13 02:03 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <DaemonFC> I've handled a successful petition in front of them before. It was to renew his EAD after MARISOL chased away the Catholic Charities. | Mar 13 02:03 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <DaemonFC> Depending on how this goes I may either be ecstatic or kicking myself in 8 months. | Mar 13 02:03 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | DaemonFC: about that... | Mar 13 02:03 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | if it failed, it goes on the record | Mar 13 02:03 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | better not to try and fail | Mar 13 02:03 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | the lawyers are about showing them you have means to fight back | Mar 13 02:03 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | not so much the quality of the paper you put in | Mar 13 02:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | it's easy for IRS to pick on poor people | Mar 13 02:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | rich people take lawyers | Mar 13 02:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | and cost the IRS more | Mar 13 02:04 |
| DaemonFC | There's a similar approval rate on this form either way. | Mar 13 02:05 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR2]: The people with no attorney who request a fee waiver get approved about the same percentage of the time too. | Mar 13 02:05 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | maybe their cases are easier | Mar 13 02:05 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | so they do it on their own | Mar 13 02:05 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR2]: Yeah, people who have criminal records and immigration offenses should NOT attempt this. | Mar 13 02:06 |
| DaemonFC | Because the lawyer needs to handle that. | Mar 13 02:06 |
| DaemonFC | But if your case is simple you can self-file. | Mar 13 02:06 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | " | Mar 13 02:06 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | > I world love to be able to provide you with more information but it is necessary for me to be very cautious. The subject is right now very hot and I cannot provide much more information than what you can read from the ILO judgement without making obvious that Information was leaked and therefore putting whistleblowers at risks. | Mar 13 02:06 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | I have sent you is a link to the Judgment. | Mar 13 02:06 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Can you provide a quick outline of the case? Sometimes I get it wrong due to a lack of context in the resultant PDF." | Mar 13 02:06 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | DaemonFC: easy cases, less fees | Mar 13 02:07 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | hard casses | Mar 13 02:07 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | more fees | Mar 13 02:07 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | so you cannot make then correlation you made | Mar 13 02:07 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | about success rates | Mar 13 02:07 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz[TR2]: Same fee. | Mar 13 02:38 |
| DaemonFC | About $1750 to file it. | Mar 13 02:38 |
| DaemonFC | Anotehr $1,200 to show up and sit there. | Mar 13 02:38 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | ┌( ಠ_ಠ)┘ | Mar 13 02:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | waste | Mar 13 02:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | and greed | Mar 13 02:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | probably exempetion for asylum seekers | Mar 13 02:55 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | anyway, we both wish you good luck and hapiness | Mar 13 02:56 |
| DaemonFC | Thank you Roy, I think I have this. | Mar 13 03:04 |
| DaemonFC | It really depends more on Mandy's performance in there. | Mar 13 03:04 |
| DaemonFC | We filed as good of a case as possible. | Mar 13 03:04 |
| DaemonFC | The lawyer could not have done it much better. | Mar 13 03:05 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | <Ingar> schestowitz[TR]: I'm axnious to read the piece on Freenode :D | Mar 13 09:43 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> wasn't that a couple years ago? | Mar 13 09:43 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> lol, #shitlords mentioned | Mar 13 09:43 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> that channel's been around for years and years. it's an unofficial channel for shitposting | Mar 13 09:43 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> there I gave it a +s so it doesn't show up in /list | Mar 13 09:43 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <Ingar> we have a shitpost channel? dang | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> I think it was started by TMB | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> fedora made fedora-social | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> and in 2008 we copied that | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> so no bad lang :-) | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> What about Visual Basic? | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | * Ingar burns chromas's eyes out with a glowing hot metal rod | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <Ingar> nobody mentions Visual Basic and lives! | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> oh now you said it! | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <Ingar> oh noes | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <Ingar> you tricked me! | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> that started because a user called "balzac" spoke about strip clubs in the main channel | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> sounds like extra baggage you don't need | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <chromas> I assumed you sac'ed him | Mar 13 10:04 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <janrinok> schestowitz[TR], there is a problem with preventing people from speaking on this channel. It is used by people who wish to inform us of problems, or to ask questions about a specific aspect of the site. We cannot always be on here reading things in real-time, so if they get not response we do not the communication desired. | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <janrinok> * if they get no response we do not have the communication desired. (Typing too fast again...!) | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <fab23> schestowitz[TR]: As I see it, we do have more traffic in the channel caused by discussing the issue, then what the issue itself causes. | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <janrinok> Those wishing to interrupt the site want people to know who they are - they seek the publicity. They therefore either use their real name or they give themselves away by the things that they say. Anything else and they are not achieving their aim. | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> we adopted a different approach | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> we identified them | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> and then explained what they did | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | * chromas waits for the punchline | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <janrinok> Everybody knows aristarchus. He has accounts elsewhere. | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> it's like MikeUSA | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <schestowitz[TR]> in Linux circles | Mar 13 10:14 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <janrinok> He was here for a while too | Mar 13 10:14 |
